Calorie deficit graph would be helpful

I'd love to have see a calorie deficit graph in this site. I know I can use Excel to calculate my deficit and chart it but ease of use is why I go to this site. I used to do all that and it takes 15 min a day.

I think that's a good idea too.

I agree that would be really nice

I created a spreadsheet because I wanted to see how my average deficit over 10 days would affect my weight loss each Monday. I haven't plateaued yet this time around, but I want to be ready when I do and I think knowing when to vary my calorie intake would be beneficial based on historical entries.  So I agree, a chart would be nice.

If I had more time, I think I'd add in a water entry so I can see how more water might affect my weight loss.

ooh water would be good to.  Sounds silly but if I had glasses of water to check off I might drink more water!

I have thought this same thing many times!

I love the analysis tool because it sums all the intake information beautifully!  It would be even better though if we could see the same sort of information for burn as well.

I'm typically a sedentary person, and while I do get some exercise in daily, it's not enough to move me up to the light activity level.  Because of this I often adjust my intake based on the extra calories I burn during the day.  There's really no easy way to compare intake and burn except on that day using the meters.
